We have mocking birds which we don't remember seeing in our area before. I also spotted small birds the size of finches with pale yellow and black I can't remember seeing before, perhaps they are just passing through on the way to you :)We had an unusually late snowfall in the Sierras earlier this week. We had to get the winter blankets out again. But it's beautiful now. Sure hope you get the spring you've been longing for and it's every bit worth the wait!

Look at you! With Spring everything comes new! Colors are fresh, but wait check this weather from Winter to Summer, and we even broke a heat record today from 18 something my hubby said. I'm melting... melting... what a world, what a world!!! Who would've known that such a sweet little girl could kill all of my evil lovliness! LOL

When the goldfinches are in my part of the world, they are wearing their olive garb. Sometimes before they leave, a bit of the bright yellow is showing through. I'd love to see them in full golden regalia!

birdwatching is one of our favorite activities as well. We have had so many colors at our feeders this spring, more than usual it seems! I love the songs that fill the air all day long, it just makes the day feel joyous!

You have quite the collection of little friends in your yard! :) We have our resident cardinals (a male and female), tons of doves, robins (who have been building nests), sparrows and finches...I think that's about it at the moment. ;)

Just this year I learned that Orioles do not eat seeds. So I added an Oriole feeder to the collection outside our kitchen window and like magic they came! They seem to like the jam the best, but they also drink the nectar. They don't seem to be interested in the fruit.

Such a variety of beautiful colors you have visiting (and living) in your yard. Besides the robins we mainly have sparrows, red winged blackbirds and mourning doves. I enjoy the visits from cardinals, jays and the sweetest wild canaries.
